Description:
Jillian Michaels, TV’s toughest fitness guru, delivers a high-energy workout designed to keep viewers on track with their fitness and weight loss goals! Each of these high intensity DVDs will help get viewers moving, accelerate their fat-burning potential, and tone muscles through a series of creative cardio and weight training sessions. Her self-affirming blueprint for weight loss breathes life into her viewers’ workout regimen through genuine, supportive guidance backed by her impressive credentials. Jillian Michaels holds personal training certificates from the renowned National Endurance and Strength Training Association (NESTA) and the American Fitness Association of America (AFAA) certification program. Additionally, Ms. Michaels has extensive experience in the martial arts practice of Muay Thai and Akarui-Do, in which she holds a black belt. Ms. Michaels was recognized by The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) for her accomplishments in both Advanced Exercise Nutrition and Supplementation for Training and Performance.

Amazon.com:
Jillian Michaels, the trainer from NBC's The Biggest Loser and self-proclaimed 'TV's toughest fitness guru,' runs through circuit training like a drill sergeant on caffeine. Her theory is to keep moving in between exercises to burn twice as many calories, so she cycles her team through sumo squats, mountain climbers, jump ropes, shoulder raises and bicycle moves without taking a breath. If she doesn't think one of her comrades is picking up his knees high enough, she makes everyone do 30 more, with a sadistic grin. As a result, you can almost literally watch the muscle burn. Michaels' Shape-Up Front DVD works out the chest, shoulders, triceps and quads. It also requires two props: a bench-style exercise step and light dumbbells. The DVD features include printable diet/exercise logs, nutrition tips and recipes. Despite a lower-level option, it isn't for anyone looking for a low-impact aerobic workout. --Ellen A. Kim

- It's okay!
You can get your heart rate up, it just depends how much you put into the work out! I just have a hard time with how "cool" she acts in her videos! Like most of the people who have work out videos, I doubt any of them have truly ever had a weight problem. The set along with her style of teaching are not my favorite! If I could have tried before I bought...I would not have bought the set.

- quick but effective workout
The workout only lasts about 25 minutes and I initially thought this was short, but I definitely feel it the next day. I thought it would be more intense (because Jillian seems tough), but it is not that intense and yet it seems to be effective (my whole body is sore!). I wish it had energetic music to go with the workout (and subtitles or close captioning).

- I Wish I could have my money back....
This workout is a complete joke. I don't think I even broke a sweat. It lasts a little over 22 minutes and that's only b/c at the end of the video, one of the students mutters "that's it?" under her breath. Ms. Michaels extends the video two whole minutes with another set of jumping jacks.

If you have worked out at all in the past couple of months, this will NOT be a challenge for you. The video consists of her mostly giggling and gloating about how "difficult" this workout is and how "tough" of a trainer she is.

on the off-chance that you are reading this, Ms. Michaels- I want my money back.

- Very disappointing !!!!! (Kickbox cardio)
I'm intermediate when it comes to working out. I love kick boxing and this video was a joke. First of all Jillian seemed like she was on dope, giggling away for no apparent reason. If you are Jillian Micheals fan then I would suggest sticking to 30 day shred. That is a great workout dvd.
